Only five miles towards the coast is the well known holiday destination of Beadnell, which offers local facilities including a village shop and family friendly pubs serving good food. Beadnell Bay is a glorious stretch of golden sandy beach and can truly be described as the jewel in Northumberland’s seaside crown; idyllic for a romantic barefoot stroll in the sand to listen to the waves lap against the shoreline and inhale the invigorating sea air... It’s also popular for watersports enthusiasts, try sailing, sea kayaking, wind surfing and scuba diving. A small sandy bay speckled with rocky outcrops leads to a long sandy beach which stretches two miles to the traditional fishing port of Seahouses where boat trips to the nearby Farne Islands, famous for its bird sanctuaries and seal colony, depart regularly from its harbour. Seahouses offers several charming tea rooms, amusements and shops with horse riding; fishing and golf on the links close by being only a sample of the many amenities available in this popular location. A further three miles up the coastline is the picturesque village of Bamburgh, which lies snuggled in the shadow of its majestic fortress and commands the power and presence of the seasoned television set it regularly becomes. Holy Island – the birthplace of Christianity and site of Lindisfarne Castle, can be seen from the unspoilt golden, sandy beach. The bustling market town of Alnwick, with its own dramatic castle (and film location for Harry Potter’s Hogwarts Academy!) is only seven miles south west of Allium. Visitors will enjoy a trip to Alnwick Garden, a spectacular interpretation of a formal garden including the Grand Cascade waterfall and restaurant within the largest tree house in Europe!
Allium is an excellent choice for those seeking a well presented coastal retreat to rest and refresh with easy access to one of the most glorious beaches in Northumberland, designated as an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty.

A beautiful and quiet cottage, home from home, extremely well equipped. Own car parking space outside the front door.Situated just off the A1 giving easy access to all the tourist sites. There aren’t any local shops, just a lovely pub but all main stores are only a short drive away.The owners are extremely helpful with excellent communication.The garden is south facing, ideal to relax in after a day out.Allium is one of the best cottages I have stayed in over the years and would happily return again, a real gem.
